One Response to “MScanner: a classifier for retrieving Medline citations”

    Graham Poulter:

    There have been patches of downtime for assorted reasons (server room cooling, and accidental deletion of the database at one point), but the MScanner service is running smoothly now.

    I also added the “future work” feature for training the classifier on words from the title/abstract in addition to the Medical Subject Headings.

    Above all I want my research to be useful to others, so feel free to contact me with problems or requests.
